from down to up

whenever you feel down, you feel like never getting up again. i can be jealous about the religious people who always have their religion at such periods.
but recently, i read an interview with eric kaplan and read his philosophy.
a quite comforting philosophy for the atheists in a dip.
his theory says that we, humans, need a purpose in our days and in our lives. you have to know why you want things or not, often being just experiences you have.
being a atheist does not mean you do not believe in something, mayby in santaclaus or just the flower fairies, a story, a myth, something your make up yourself. why not even though you know rationally it is not a proven fact. what is truth for a philosopher; only read sophie's world by jostein gaarder and you realize how surreal the world could be and is.
philosophy in this world can be a survival skill with which you can find your intellectual and moral balance. it gives you tools.

love

just read Harry Potter and the deathly hallows for the second time. the power of love is a red thread throughout the whole series of Harry Potter books. remembering the power of love in every little dip of the day will bring a smile right away. Lenny Kravitz — Let Love Rule Love is gentle as a rose And love can conquer any war It's time to take a stand Brothers and sisters join hands We got to let love rule Let love rule We got to let love rule Let love rule Love transcends all space and time And love can make a little child smile Can't you see this won't go wrong But we got to be strong We can't do it alone We got to let love rule Let love rule We got to let love rule Let love rule

rebel met vleugels: het verhaal van icarus

marcel roijaards heeft een prachtig, meeslepend verhaal geschreven met zijn boek rebel met vleugels. hij heeft de dramatische mythe omgetoverd tot een positief en vrolijk carpe diem en liefdes- en vriendschapsverhaal. inventief is de manier waarop het verhaal verteld wordt door middel van een verboden voordracht in het openluchttheater. de gevoelens zijn herkenbaar, de woorden zijn beeldend en het verhaal van icarus is aantrekkelijk en meeslepend. meer over het boek op de website van marcel roijaards recensie van bas maliepaard

sagacious to use sage

sage is such a wonderful herb, although i do not like the tea from sage. if you, like me, hate to use chemical deodorants but also hate smelling after a busy day, you can use sage. drink it as tea with a bit of honey ( http://www.ehow.com/how_6098728_make-sage-tea-ground-sage.html ) or like me, just chew a nib of dried sage a few times a day (depending on the weather and the program from one to four times a day). it works marvellous. and besides, it is healthy for your throat too.
